It just so happens that on the the P1022, the CPU does support both directions in its DAI, but the codec (WM8776) supports only one direction per DAI. So I suspect that you shouldn't be testing codec_dai either, because it assumes that the codec is the only arbiter on which direction a given dai-group supports.
Or it just means that unidirectional CPU DAIs are so rare that nobody got round to adding the check for them.
Anyway, I changed my driver to test for the actual pointer, and it works. You might want to consider doing the same in soc_pcm_new().
I know we've been round this loop quite a few times in the past but just to reiterate the situation with Linux is rather different to with other OSs - you can submit patches to *any* code in Linux, you're not restricted to only working on your individual driver.
